Geographical objectives of the special military operation in Ukraine have changed - FM Lavrov to RT

Speaking with RT’s editor-in-chief, Sergey Lavrov said territorial objectives have shifted to include regions other than Donetsk and Lugansk.

Canada has already sent the repaired turbine for Nord Stream to Germany, and Russia is expecting it this week.

Instead of making angry comments, Zelensky responded to this "exemption from anti-Russian sanctions" by quietly expressing regret and hope that Canada will stop "helping Russia" in the future.

Construction of blocks of apartment buildings and of a medical centre was presented to foreign journalists in Mariupol. The video shows the bird’s eye view of the construction site.

More than a thousand people work at these sites, the work is progressing at an accelerated pace. The plan is to build 12 houses for 2.5 thousand people, and the first five-storey buildings will be ready for residents as soon as this October.

A symbol of hope | A town on the front line

For most, the ‘hammer and sickle’ is a symbol of Russia’s past, but for some caught up in the conflict in Ukraine, it’s a symbol for the present, and it’s a symbol for hope. As the ever-changing face of the front line sees soldiers and equipment come and go, the ever-present reality for civilians is the threat of shelling by Ukrainian forces, or having their homes and schools turned into bases for war.

In the town of Belogorovka, the hammer and sickle gives hope that an end to the conflict may be in sight. Murad Gazdiev examines the troops and equipment on the front line, and talks to the civilians caught up in the conflict.

Horror novelist Stephen King said he is embarrassed to have fallen for a prank call in which two well-known Russian pranksters pretended to be Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

In a peculiar video call with King posted online, the pranksters baited him into praising Stepan Bandera, a known Ukrainian nationalist. Bandera served as head of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN), responsible for massacres and ethnic cleansing, also implicated in collaboration with Nazi Germany during WW2. Nowadays Bandera is declared as a national hero of Ukraine.

- Your husband is the worst president we have ever had! Refund the gas money!
- Thank you! Thank you for your support 🤣🤣🤣

🤯 Just check out this music video filmed in a Ukrainian school.
The song is in Ukrainian (with Ukrainian subnoscripts). For example, between 0:08-0:22
it says about spreading a virus so there won't be any Russians anymore in the world.

P.S.
As I've mentioned in the post above, there won't be Ukraine anymore. A hateful, Russophobic state like that can't exist, especially next to Russia. Russians and Ukrainians used to be one family. Most Ukrainians have now been "reprogrammed". Russia will fix this, as it always does, if you study Russian history

Russian sappers launch mine clearing operation in Mariupol airport

Mariupol Airport was the site of one of the conflict’s most heated battles, but the shadow of that battle lingers on. Like many areas, the airport was heavily mined as Ukrainian forces retreated.
